Declaration of Independence

"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.--That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, --That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former Systems of Government."

Budapest Memorandum

Singed in 1994, the Budapest Memorandum saw Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan give up their nuclear weapons in exchange for security assurances, specifically from the threat or use of military force or economic coercion against Ukraine, Belarus, and Kazakhstan from Russia, the United States and the United Kingdom. This agreement was blatantly broken in February 2014 when Russia invaded and seized Crimea.

The Memorandum confirms the following:

  1. Russia, UK and US reaffirm commitment to Ukraine, in accordance with the principles of the CSCE Final Act, to respect the independence and sovereignty and the existing borders of Ukraine

  2. Russia, UK and US reaffirm their obligation to refrain from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of Ukraine, and that none of their weapons will ever be used against Ukraine except in self-defense or otherwise in accordance with he Charter of the United Nations

  3. Russia, UK and US reaffirm their commitment to Ukraine, in accordance with the principles of the CSCE Final Act, to refrain from economic coercion designed to subordinate to their own interest the exercise b Ukraine by the rights inherent in its sovereignty and thus to secure advantages of any kind

  4. Russia, UK and US reaffirm their commitment to sekk immediate UN Security Council action to provide assistance to Ukraine, as a non-nuclear-weapon state party to the treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, if Ukraine should become a victim of an act of aggression or an object of a threat of aggression in which nuclear weapons are used

  5. Russia, UK and US reaffirm, in the case of Ukraine, their commitment not to use nuclear weapons against any non-nuclear-weapon state party to the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons, except in the case of an attack on themselves, their territories or dependent territories, their armed forces, or their allies, by such in a state in association or alliance with a nuclear weapon state

  6. Russia, UK and US will consult in the event a situation arises which raises a question concerning these commitments.

After reading this, it appears, logically, that Russia is the aggressor.
